October 27…. Muddy waters

Monday was moving day again. This time we’re camped on the banks of The Big Muddy. Ol’ Man River. The Mighty Mississipp.

We’re across the river from Memphis TN, on the Arkansas side. Watching the constant barge traffic go up and down river. Big ones. Small ones. Sometimes just a push boat by itself. But they never stop. Even at night, we can hear the rumbles of the big diesels as they push a string up river. Down river, with the current, they don’t have to work nearly as hard, but still we hear them going past.

It was my second longest drive to get here, so we’ll take it easy this afternoon and go be tourists tomorrow. 😄

  1. years and years ago, Adrian and I were staying in Memphis, so we did the tourist thing and crossed over the mighty Mississippi. And I still remember it today. Have fun.
